13-year-old Addison Logan found a picture of his long-dead uncle inside a camera in May 2012. He bought the camera at a yard sale last Thursday. He often goes to yard sales, where he can buy many things at very low prices.
The Arkansas boy said he bought this old camera for just one US dollar when he visited a yard sale with his grandmother. He liked taking pictures and he thought a second-hand camera was OK for him to practice taking pictures. Although it was not a digital(数字的) camera, it looked just very nice. When they got home, he took off the camera's film(胶卷) box and found a picture of a man. His grandmother said that the man was her son, Scott, who died in a traffic accident 23 years before.
